The refusal to feel takes a heavy toll. Not only is there an impoverishment of our emotional and sensory life, flowers are dimmer and less fragrant, our loves less ecstaticâ but this psychic numbing also impedes our capacity to process and respond to information.

Gratitude is liberating. It is subversive. It helps us to realize that we are sufficient, and that realization frees us (Joanna Macy Quotes)
The biggest gift you can give is to be absolutely present, and when you’re worrying about whether you’re hopeful or hopeless or pessimistic or optimistic, who cares?

That was what is going to unleash our intelligence and our ingenuity and our solidarity for the healing of our world (Joanna Macy Quotes)
It’s walking the razor’s edge of the sacred moment where you don’t know, you can’t count on, and comfort yourself with any sure hope. All you can know is your allegiance to life and your intention to serve it in this moment that we are given. In that sense, this radical uncertainty liberates your creativity and courage (Joanna Macy Quotes)
